early voting has started across the country. we have actual results to report and those results show clearly the president will win re-election if we do what we need to do. >> yea! 4.4 million people have already voted. he goes on to encourage volunteers to dig deep. mitt romney spending the day in florida with senator marco rubio and jeb bush. paul ryan will be in wisconsin. romney allegedly took the day off yesterday from campaigning and engaged in what was branded as a storm relief benin stead of a rally but voters show that donors were asked to wait until the candidate turned up to give their donated goods. goods which the red cross neither needed nor wanted. >> photo op. >> it wreaks a lot of the paul ryan soup kitchen photo op and the red cross wants money not goods or even blood donations at this point. the campaign played romney's bio video, the one he played at

business. >> thank you for that introduction. >> stephanie: first of all how do i get your former gig? i have to say i don't know if you know this but i was first team all catholic in the catholic league in upstate new york. i have a killer hook shot. i think the president would really enjoy -- that's my dream to get to play basketball with him at some point. >> if you got a killer hook shot and you can score the president likes to win so he's always looking to play -- always trying to find a ringer to put on the team. >> you can't call goaltending on p.o.t.u.s. though. >> stephanie: you're a former collegiate superstar. even though i'm good, i'm still a girl. i could make him look really good. >> well, i think that he would make everyone who he plays basketball with look a lot better than they do. that's safe to say stephanie. >> stephanie: reggie, i gotta say, i'm fired up ready to go, as they say moving forward.

you know, what's interesting every other news cycle that the media wants to go there is an enthusiasm gap here and there. i'm not seeing it. everywhere i go, you know, people really are fired up for this president. >> well, you know, what people -- always forget is that in 2008, you know, the news outlet and the media outlets had the highest coverage of a presidential campaign that they've ever had in the history of politics. so you know, they're under some tough pressure to re-create the same sort of atmosphere, the same sort of. >> eliot: of controversy over this election. so people are more likely to tune in. not to say that they're fixing it. but you know, i think sometimes they make stories -- they make stories -- they make stories to create coverage.

>> stephanie: that's what we've been saying from day one reggie. it seems like they're more interested in making it seem like a horse race than -- in what the truth is. i think as david axelrod said yesterday, we're winning. if you look at any independent pollster or pufneddity looking at the numbers clearly the president has an edge. >> have you guys seen "the hunger games"? >> stephanie: i've heard of it. i have not. i never leave my house. >> you have to check out "the hunger games." it is a similar concept. >> or you could read the book. >> stephanie: i could if i had time. >> she's more of a fan of the thirst games. >> stephanie: i need an ireggie. he said i have an eye reggie who has my books newspaper and music all in one place. >> he found a lot of comfort in knowing if reggie's here, i know

that if something's not working he'll be able to fix it even though i'm not like some sort of -- i don't have a computer science degree -- but he's hard working enough and competitive enough to figure it out. >> stephanie: exactly. reggie you know, i thought the president -- so funny you can't sort of fake the way he spontaneously reacted when someone asked him about the election. he said i'm not concerned about the election. that will take care of itself. that's what you see in him. he's really concerned about people. you can't fake that. >> i mean at the end of the day you know, i think the president -- said this over and over again. you know. his main concern is to do the right thing for the america people. in doing the right thing for the american people or for the country results in him not being

re-elected, he would much rather do the right thing and risk not being re-elected to say hey i don't really feel like i can do this because it may cost me my job even though i think it is the right thing to do. he's never going to make that decision. i think that some people become enamored with their elected office or their elected position. and you can be in a position where all you're thinking about is how am i going to be re-elected. sometimes that can weigh on what's going to do the most amount of good for the american people. >> stephanie: reggie, it is interesting. i do read, jacki. i just got a chance to read on the plane on the way back. i was reading a little bit of audacity to win by david plough. >> is that after you finished how to catch strep? >> stephanie: exactly. reggie, i was struck by what you just said. the little bit i read, he describes his first meeting with

the president and david axelrod when he was thinking about running and he said i have never had a meeting like that. he didn't talk about the politics of it at all. can i win. this sort of insane blind ambition that you can see in mitt romney. he literally talked about can we do something? can i do something on substance for the american people? they were so struck by how extraordinary that was. it wasn't about him wanting to be president or can i be president politically. can i have -- can i really help people? i mean i just thought that was extraordinary. >> i mean i think -- that is sort of the definition of leadership. and progress for what our leaders are beginning to look like. there's so much pressure out there for people to try to figure out how they're going to do the next big thing. who's going to make the next ipad or who's going to have the next facebook. and people -- that's something

that even though we look to people for good ideas and great solutions, you know, in our politics, it is ultimately important to look to people who understand what it's like for people like our moms and our dads who are struggling with figuring out how they're going to plan for their retirement and have healthcare. do all of those -- you know, nonsuper human activities. >> stephanie: reaminggy, it is interesting. here we go, the pundits the story is how is this going to affect the election. how is this playing? i'm sorry. you can -- not to politicize it, you can see the difference in the last couple of days. here's mitt romney saying he's not having a campaign event which is clearly a campaign event. the president is just doing his job. that's why when you have someone like chris christie go on and on about what a great job he's doing, i mean even when mitt romney is caught on tape,

reggie, you go it is all about him talking about how he's going to win and be president and the politics of it. i think you've just got the feeling that it isn't about that with president obama. >> i think you're spot on. i think mitt romney obviously ran bain capital for several years. one of my college teammates goes to church with mitt romney which is a little awkward for me. >> stephanie: awkward. [ laughter ] >> and you know, i think -- you know, mitt romney sort of looks at this as like a business. and i think there is a certain level of looking at running -- there is a certain part of running the american government in this country that is business-like. but there is no business element to figuring out how to help people who are upside down on their mortgages going through a

refinancing program, there's no business side to trying to figure out how to make america the most competitive place for students and for our universities by expanding. there are certain things that you can't put like -- i think they call it at school -- there are certain things that don't have a return on investment calculation. >> stephanie: that's right. look at the midst of this. mitt romney is say he's for getting rid of fema and privatizing this. he won't even answer a question about that even though he's in the midst of having a campaign event. here's the president, you know, not calculating just doing what he has to do to actually help people. not how it's going to look, right? >> yeah. that's -- that's what leadership is about you know. what leadership is about being able to -- to stand up and have a tough situation look you in the face and say i'm not going to politicize this.

and you look at it with t.a.r.p. i think people forget about t.a.r.p. when t.a.r.p. was passed, it was summer of 2008 which is the trouble asset relief program passed by george w. bush. the candidate then worked across the aisles with republicans and with democrats to help t.a.r.p. be passed. basically in the fall before the election actually -- if you were concerned about how to become president, you would want to see the country fail. people would look toward a different party for leadership. not for one minute, did he think about playing politics with, you know such an important issue. >> stephanie: yep. >> which was solvency for the american banking system. >> stephanie: yep. reggie, i know -- they're

telling us have a killer schedule. we so appreciate you taking time. please tell the president we got his back! >> we do. >> we'll do that, stephanie. i'll tell him you've got a great hook shot. he can come find you. >> stephanie: you don't understand how i was feared throughout the catholic league in upstate new york, reggie. i appreciate your respect. reggie love, thank you so much. talk to you soon. there he goes. [ applause ] >> wow, what a cool guy. >> stephanie: still strikes fear in the hearts of former catholic girls everywhere. right. 45 minutes after the hour. right back on "the stephanie miller show." >> eke. i just spewed on my dashboard again. it's "the stephanie miller show."
